Summary Letter to Northeast Conference Re June 26, 2020 Commissioner Noreen Morris Northeast Conference 200 Cottontail Lane Vantage Court South Somerset, NJ 08873 Dear Commissioner Morris, We are a consortium of advocates for women and girls in sports. Access to and participation in sports improves the lives of all students, and that is particularly true for girls and women. During this time of COVID-19, we are writing to remind you of your institutional obligation to uphold Title IX.1 We understand that these are trying times for collegiate institutions, including athletics departments. In response to financial pressures, we have become aware that some universities are considering program cuts to their athletic programs.2 As the commissioner of the 1 20 U.S.C. §§ 1681-1688. 2 Sallee, Barrett. “Group of Five Commissioners Ask NCAA to Relax Rules That Could Allow More Sports to Be Cut.” CBS Sports, April 15, 2020.

Available at: https://www.shelbystar.com/sports/20200512/cost-cutting-changes-hit-big-south-conference (The Big South Conference limited schools to only four teams in postseason tournaments next year. Those are men’s and women’s soccer, women’s volleyball, softball, and baseball, or three women’s sports and two men’s sports.) Northeast Conference, we ask that you be a leader in ensuring your conference and your members do not cut any athletic programs, and specifically, that they preserve women’s athletic opportunities to participate and receive equal treatment. The data we have compiled from the Equity in Athletics Database demonstrates that women are facing serious Title IX deficiencies; they lag behind men’s programming in every measurable criteria.3 The attached legal memo provides a thorough analysis of the data for your conference’s members under Title IX. As the Commissioner of the Northeast Conference, we ask for your leadership in upholding your legal and moral obligations to women in higher education by ensuring measures are taken to protect their educational opportunities. Indeed, we sincerely hope the Northeast Conference will be a leader in gender equality in athletics, in service of the larger goals of higher education. In 1972, Congress passed Title IX, and President Nixon signed it into law. In 1975, schools were given three years, until 1978, to comply with the regulations applying the statute to athletics.4 In the 2018–2019 year alone, at Northeast Conference member schools, in sum (refer also to table below): ● 1,297 females were denied a sports opportunity, under the first test of Title IX compliance, based on unduplicated numbers. ● There are two other legal tests for whether an institution is providing enough athletic opportunities for women, and Northeast Conference member institutions fail both of them as well. ● If Northeast Conference member institutions were to provide women with equal opportunities to participate and add these 1,297 female student-athletes for the 2020– 2021 school year, an additional $17,728,697 in scholarship aid would need to be provided for their female student-athletes in order to equal the male student-athlete scholarships.5 ● Moreover, Northeast Conference member institutions would need to spend an additional $1,128,131 recruiting female athletes to provide this type of benefit equally to male and female athletes, as required by Title IX. ● Title IX requires not just equal opportunities quantitatively, but qualitatively as well. We urge you to review whether women’s sports receive equal treatment in aspects such as: facilities, equipment, scheduling, marketing, coaching, recruiting, academic and other support. ● As a reminder, these are rare and rationed educational experiences for both men and women. Northeast Conference member institutions provided just 14.2% of its students with a varsity sports experience in 2018–2019 school year. ● When aggregated nationally, the discrimination we have demonstrated by the Northeast Conference adds up to tragically large losses for women, losses that will never be remedied. 3 Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act, available at: http://ope.ed.gov/athletics/. Each year, colleges and universities provide the Department of Education with data from their athletic department regarding numbers of participation opportunities provided to the students, scholarships, staffing, and revenues and expenses, that are broken down by the men’s and women’s teams. 4 34 C.F.R. § 106, available at: https://www2.ed.gov/policy/rights/reg/ocr/edlite-34cfr106.html#S41. 5 Letter from Dr. Mary Frances O’Shea, National Coordinator for Title IX Athletics, Office for Civil Rights, Department of Education, to Nancy S. Footer, General Counsel, Bowling Green State Univ. (July 23, 1998), available at: https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/bowlgrn.html Page 2 o Last year alone, NCAA schools provided women with 63,149 fewer sports opportunities than these schools provided men, as a raw number. However, women enroll in postsecondary education at higher rates than men, so simply subtracting the opportunities provided to women from the opportunities provided to men does not capture the true discrimination gap. o Last year alone, NCAA colleges and universities provided women with 148,030 fewer sports opportunities than provided to men, if women and men had equal opportunities. In other words, if they both had an almost 4:100 chance of getting to play collegiate sports, women would have had an additional 148,030 sports opportunities. (Men currently enjoy a 3.93% sports participation rate, while women are provided with just a 2.36% participation rate.) o Last year alone, women lost $1 billion dollars in collegiate athletic scholarship aid, because they are women. As you will see on the table below, we have assigned a pass/fail “grade” to indicate whether each school is providing equal participation opportunities, scholarship dollars, and benefits (using recruiting spending as one proxy) to its male and female students. Title IX compliance requires equality overall. Denying women equal athletic opportunities is a significant loss. The research linking sports participation with life-long educational, economic, and health benefits is well-established. Sports provide males and females from diverse socioeconomic, racial, and ethnic backgrounds measurable positive educational impacts.6 Betsey Stevenson, an economist now at the University of Michigan, found that playing sports actually caused more education and higher incomes.7 Girls who play sports make 8% higher wages compared to their non-sport playing counterparts.8 In addition, a sports experience changes a woman’s short-term and long-term health trajectory 6 Staurowsky, E. J., M. J. DeSousa, K. E. Miller, D. Sabo, S. Shakib, N. Theberge, and N. Williams. Her Life Depends on It III: Sport, Physical Activity, and the Health and Well-Being of American Girls and Women. East Meadow, NY; Women’s Sports Foundation. (May 2015). 7 Stevenson, Betsey. Beyond the Classroom: Using Title IX to Measure the Return to High School Sports. NBER Paper Series, Working Paper 15728. 2010. Available at: http://www.nber.org/papers/w15728. 8 Id. at 24. Page 3 including: decreased risk of heart disease, breast cancer, osteoporosis, tobacco and drug use, unwanted teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, depression and suicide.9 Research by Ernst and Young found that 96% of C-suite women were athletes.10 Athletics is commonly referred to as the “front porch” to the university and thereby communicates an institution’s values to the entire community. As such, athletics can lead the way toward a better environment for women on campus overall, including sexual assault prevention. Gender equality in athletics—one of the only sex-segregated areas of your member schools—demonstrates substantively that Northeast Conference members treat men and women as equals. If the Northeast Conference and its member institutions’ athletics departments do not treat women as equal to men, it cannot expect its male students to do so, either now or in the future. The facts and the law are clear. The Northeast Conference professes to be committed to equity and inclusion. In fact, the Conference signed on to the NCAA’s Presidential Pledge to promote diversity and gender equality in intercollegiate athletics within the past four years.11 Most of your peer NCAA institutions have also signed this pledge.
